[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Antagonist: [QB] In a perfect world, FMD would come to mass market fairly fast (within 4 years time or so), and be able to best out or even keep up with the already established and fledgling CD and DVD standards. However this isn't a perfect world. We have things called industry standards and copyright laws and the like. Movie making labels sell, almost exclusively, their movie rights to supporters of the VHS and DVD communities. I can see the need for this immense storage capacity. Anybody ever heard of TiVo? The device that allows Television views to prerecord their favorite television programs to a hard drive and watch it at any time they wish? This device is amazingly useful, but theonly downside is that the quality of recording is SHIT. It isn't even VHS quality, and by my standards, VHS is not quality. if you want VHS quality, the usual 90 hour recording time is rediced to 30 hours. Like I said, this FMD thing could really be useful for TiVo, as the gargantuan size would mean views could view VHS quality TV shows (what we view normally) with a considerable record time still available. I had a view other things to say, but I forgot, so I guess you're all pretty lucky I'm not going to continue to talk. [/QB][/QUOTE]
